Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it is investigating potential legal claims against the board of directors of Lufkin Industries Inc. ("Lufkin" or the "Company") (NASDAQ GS:
LUFK) regarding possible breaches of fiduciary duties and other violations of law related to the Company's entry into an agreement to be acquired by General Electric Company ("GE") (NYSE:
GE) in a transaction valued at approximately
$3.3 billion.

Under the terms of the proposal, public shareholders of Lufkin will receive
$88.50 per share in cash for each share of Lufkin they own.

The investigation concerns whether Lufkin's board of directors failed to adequately shop the Company and obtain the best possible value for Lufkin's shareholders before entering into an agreement with GE.
